Gavaskar 36(174) - the most painful of all time

From the above list, Rokibul's but alok's sounds worse though I haven't seen it. And yet people want him in the team?

how about we compare the best innings of both Raquibul and Alok?

Alok's best being the century against India in Asia cup...

and Raquibul's being... ummm errr... cough...

besides i never said its a versus thread...just suggested that we could also compare the best innings of the two batsman...

Rakibul's Innings wasn't painful to watch because we were on the verge of winning. He just took forever to get there. To me it wasn't painful, but it was definitely annoying.

The most annoying thing I have seen so far was from Ashraful. I think he was protesting against Siddons or something like that for changing his game. So he decided to defend the last over. It was the first match of the Kitply cup. because of the rain we had 40 overs to bat. We had a huge batting collapse, but Ashraful stayed through the entire innings. And then decided to play out the last over as maiden. Oh in case no one remembers the bowler who bowled the 40th over was Younis Khan. Yup.

How about Junaid and Imrul against PAK in the Asia cup earlier this year? That was not only painful but embarassing.

For Alok, keep in mind that he came in at 4 down in the 5th over and by 10.4 we were at 101/6. He was at 7(20) by then. Putting it in perspective it wasn't a big deal.

I think all of SN's innings in the 07 WC (ODI) were all painful to watch. Raqibul against IRE in the 09 T20 WC also comes to mind.

Agreed. But it still doesn't explain why Alok didn't try to get boundary on free hit for god's sake. That's pretty embarrassing too.

I wonder why thread opener opened thread by just selecting Alok and Rakib. There are plenty of or endless mental torture by Naeem and Riyad lately we have witnessed, or someone mentioned Asharaful's one. For example lots of overs left, power play on Naeem and Riyad in the middle played maiden overs when needed some runs which they could easily pick up by singles. Their test match style batting in some games which were more agonizing than Alok's one. Alok's case we lost wickets there are plenty over left he tried to revive the innings by playing riskless which very understandable at that situation, then when when he was trying to come out from shell got out, that was painfull too but a short quick torture for supporters. But Naeem's and Riyads case wickets in hand plenty overs left, power play on but no intention to play stroke or rotate runs which were more lengthy mental torture and painfull. England's visit in BD early this year games very clearly reflect in memory.. how Nayeem tortured us while there was a good chance of winning if he would play ball to ball and fetch some boundaries but that moment he went into shell and never showed any intention to make any runs which was far more agonizing than thread opener mentioned two names only. Even I remember how some people in BC started to call Nayeem as a selfish player same with Riyadh. And now someone is trying to rescue entire Bangladesh team by opening an unnecessary thread here. If your intention to show which one is painful then make list of All the painful innings list by list of the players and add select button. There are lots of painfull innings by Javed omar, Shahriar Nafees, Ashraful as someone already mentiond, Aftab, Alok, Rakib and most not to forget late tortures of Naeem and Riyadh.

So do favor and refresh your memory by looking at those players agonizeful innings and list them all..

What I'm saying here that if you give a call than give a fair call !!!

Why are you guys comparing Ash's innings with Alok's?

Ash played out the last over because match is already over. No point in getting out playing big shots.

Murad bhai ami amar jibone ekhon porjonto shuni nai kew bolse because the match is over, no point going for the big shot. come on I know you are an Ashraful fan and that's perfectly fine, but now you are going over the top to defend him. He was facing younis khan bhai. How many times has Younis khan bowled in an international game? I wasn't expecting ashraful to hit 6 sixes in a row because younis was bowling, but I wasn't expecting him to play out the last over as maiden. Everyone always complains about Riyad and Nayeem, saying oh how they always play selfishly and stay not out so they can bring their average up? Ashraful jodi aie rokom korte pare taile oder ki dosh.

I bet if that was Kayes or Rokibul there would threads going around Kayes/Rokibul most selfish player ever.

October 28, 2010, 09:10 AM

eh guys lets not compare both of them by these two innings. bot are different than each other. Alok did something very exceptional beyond his actual capability. whereas Roqibul is well known for his slow strike rate and making us crazy match after match by painful innings in ODI.

Alok > Roqibul

roman

October 28, 2010, 09:58 AM

I think Alok is way more talented than Rokibul. He was a real stylish batsman. Alok got strokes, was a great fielder and has a hattrick in test...I feel miserable to see how all these talented players like Alok, Rokon, Nafees Iqbal lost their way.These players had lot to offer. BCB did close to nothing when they got injured. And now some of us are comparing Alok with Rokibul...

One guy played 65 ODIs, scored 1170 runs at an average of 19.83 and did not play a single match winning knock. Another guy played 19 games less and scored 16 less runs at an average of 29.58 and contributed heavily in our first 2-0 test win against WI. Still people say the former is a better player, if people compare Jahurul with the latter player, I have little problem, but when a 19avg player is compared to a 30 avg player, that really hurts me. I am sorry for repeating similar arguments in multiple thread, but this thing really hurts me a lot.

The most painful for me would be to watch Morgan score that 100 and win the game for England when they visited us. We so had the game in the bad if not for Morgan and his "extra lifes"!

As a Pakistan fan I have to say they got unfair stick for that. There was little way they were gonna chase 385+ which only RSA have done so fair enough they batted out the overs instead of being bowled for 130 in 20 overs. Imrul Kayes was too slow yes but Junaid played a lovely innings, at least it wasn't a complete one-way street

Though I'm a fan of Naeem Islam, the 46 (106 b) he scored against NZ two years ago was pretty painful.
